Washington, July 16. — The nomi
nation of Wendell Willkie as the Re
publican candidate for the presidency
has strengthened the belief of politi-f
I cal observers here that President
Roosevelt will be the nominee of the
Democratic convention.
There is general agreement, not
only among Republicans but also
among Democrats, that Mr. Willkie
is the best possible man, from the
viewpoint of practical politics, whom
the opposition could have named.
That, as the shrewd lookers-on in
Washington see it, makes it incum
bent upon the Democrats to name
their best possible man. And . that
man, all agree, is the president him- Women's headaches, nervoosiieas,
